Just over 61k when I bought it. Thanks to the road trip and trying to get in as much driving as I can before winter, it's pretty close to 63k now.

Yeah, I came to the same conclusion. I still can't decide if I'm going to leave the amber on the headlights when I upgrade to HID but I'll definitely keep it on the sides.

I'll post a few when I get some time. Nothing too crazy though, not too many options on the inside.

Tasteful spoiler too, usually I don't like them but yours is nice.
I'm thinking about doing a complete stereo overhaul as it currently only has the dash speakers. The only thing that I can't decide right now is whether to go with a double-DIN unit or the ipad mini setup with a single-din unit below.

Do you have records to ballpark the number of oil changes in those 61K miles?

Also, are you on the most recent coolant cap? (mine is blue, does not have a visible part number)
